no, he's not prfkt, but mattel charges shipping as if he were genuinely massive. the box is thinner, but maybe 30% longer and 3% wider, than a standard box... so mattel charges 50% more to ship it. makes sense right?

on the subject of sssqueeze... holy crap do i like him! goofy facial expression aside, the arms work gloriously, the colors pop, and the engineering of the joints in the shoulders show how the very best of the line can be done. he's one of those figures who will used in future conversations against the figures that show the lack of imagination or technical know-how that the line demonstrates when it's executed well. my personal favorite part? he comes with the cold steel dragon head walking stick. that's kind of hilarious.

It was called a " "pet snake" " in the Vintage line. (Yes, they actually put quotation marks around it on the cardback.) Some people say it's a blaster. I don't know WHAT the Hells it's supposed to be. The old version wrapped around his arm. This version looks like an Aztec-y club, or something.

they feel great too, very thick, bendy but far from "soft" and the shoulder ratchets are just perfect. i imagine, with time, the sheer weight of the arms will wreck those ratchets, but with luck, that should take time. still, in 20 years, finding a sssqqquueeze who can still hold his arms up, that'll be the one's with after market value.
